After combining their two West Seattle offices in January, Prudential Northwest Realty Associates has announced another change.

Mike Gain, the former owner of Prudential Northwest Realty Associates and Cayce & Gain Real Estate, and a 30-year veteran in the greater Seattle real-estate industry, has assumed the management of the Puget Sound Company--which currently has 575 agents and a relocation firm headquartered in Bellevue, WA.

Gain has assembled a leadership group to assist him in the firm’s ongoing operations. Roger Cayce, Michael Smith, and Al Lynch will make up that team.

Roger Cayce, Gain’s business partner for more than 30 years, will assist and consult in operations activities.

Michael Smith, former owner of Prudential Michael Smith Realtors, brings 36 years of real estate experience to the company, and will head up the firm’s eastside operations, including Business Development and Corporate Marketing Services.

Al Lynch, former manager of the firm’s West Seattle/Jefferson Square office with over 20 years in real estate experience and an extensive background in business and finance, will serve as the firm’s chief operating officer.
